Álvaro Sandim
tb, BR
Musician / Composer
Brazilian trombonist and composer (1862–1919), known as "Santini", and director of harmony at the Sociedade Dançante Carnavalesca Ninho do Amor, who in 1913 left that club and joined the rancho Flor do Abacate. Sandim became musical director of the rancho and paraded in front of its orchestra at carnaval. This orchestra was packed with top musicians of the day, including the young saxophonist (later band leader) Romeu Silva (1893–1958), who had followed Sandim from Ninho do Amor. In 1915 Sandim composed the polka that immortalized the rancho’s name and Sandim’s own in the annals of choro (there’s even a choro group called "Flor de Abacate").
